input fields

[elizabeth_j_zeh]

What about adding input fields to the dashboard widgets. Kind of like the text field but it is enabled for user input. This input field can be used in new column and new measure fields so that once the dashboard is set up the user can easily (without filtering) explore the data by entering different values such as if you had an input box for unit price. Then if you change it all the charts of total sales, revenue, etc. Will update to reflect what would happen if you increase the price by 10%. This will enable people to quickly and easily interrogate the data

This is very very essential. All other BI tools have this functionality

very needed

This would move PowerBI to a new level and allow for better use of the visual page (i.e. being able to type in a year of interest rather than selecting it from a slicer would reduce the space required)

For a retail business, this is a common and frequent ask from users...

This ticket has been out there for 3 years and it's not even off the backlog? We're considering switching back to Tableau because of this as it's a basic expectation of our users.

Surprised this doesn't exist already. Should be your Number 1 Priority moving forward

Please add this feature. It is a very common request. Thanks.

great idea

I agree this would be a great enhancement. We see thousands of clients and it would be useful for our staff to enter the client id and drill down into the data.
